Seebohm's _English Village Community_.

[3] Witness the characteristic sentence: "On the whole
they [_i.e._ the studies of earlier society] suggest
that the differences which, after ages of change,
separate the civilised man from savage or barbarian, are
not so great as the vulgar opinion would have them....
Like the savage, he is a man of party with a newspaper
for a totem ... and like a savage he is apt to make of
his totem his God."

[4] Something of the kind was done many years ago by Sir
George Cornewall Lewis in his little book on the _Use
and Abuse of Political Terms_. I have attempted to carry
the task a step farther in an article which appeared in
the form of a review of Lord Morley's "History and
Politics" in the _Nineteenth Century_ for March 1913.
